Hello! I’m Mo

I’ve been tattooing in vermont since 2023

I love to make designs ranging between fine-line, botanical, graphic and bold, floral, surrealism, portraiture, animals, symbolism, black and grey, color, neo-traditional, muted tones, freehanding to flow with the body, woodcut style, engraver style, calligraphy, sigilism, futuristic, old world and more.

I’m inspired by art from a wide range of styles including folk art, indigenous tattooing, art from the Asian diaspora, victorian era, momento mori, tattoo styles born from american tattooing culture and more.

I view tattooing as a service for the community and a way to honor bodily autonomy, as the marks and designs enhance how we feel in our skin, allowing us to feel more at home.

As a multi faceted, multi- disciplinary artist, I have been a metal worker, carpenter and a traveling musician and love to travel to new places.

Born in South Korea, I’ve always been drawn to visual art and drawing as a small child. And went on to receive some classical training in fine art as well as mural making.

From music to blacksmithing and welding to carpentry, I appreciate many forms of art and so happy and grateful to return to a passion of making art on skin over 10 years after receiving my first tattoo machine in 2011.
